Got your own sanitizers? Don’t bother as they will be taken off you by security as it is considered a security risk so no wiping down the arms of your aircraft seat so take a paper version.

Cases of Corona are on the rise in Luton so is a cause for concern. More of a concern is that the government has handed the power of lockdown to the local authority. At work we have already commented that the only place in town that will never be locked down is the towns airport.

Top tip, never ever get in a taxi at the airports taxi rank.

Also don’t use any independent valet parking companies at Luton unless you have your car chemically deep cleaned before use. Even the airport run valet parking should be considered risky as well as the whole airport experience.

Second wave coming? Absolutely and it is only a matter of weeks away.
If you consider that Luton ranks 26th place in the UK in terms of population then it can be expected to have a significant figure in terms of COVID-19 infections. However we have less infections per 100 than Bedford and according to other data it appears St Albans City is worse which suggests Luton is safer of the three!

My household has only key workers so all of us have worked throughout this pandemic and guess what? We all commute by train and equally we all go to supermarkets and we wear face masks and have a regime of washing our hands regularly. For you to suggest Luton is spreading the virus is ridiculous and unfounded!
